Route resolver

Route points from airways, SIDs and STARs

Overview

Route resolver turns a route description into the actual points a flight would fly. Inside the United States it uses published airways, SIDs and STARs; elsewhere it falls back to direct legs. The result is a clean sequence of coordinates an application can measure, cost, or hand to another service.

Features

  • US airways, SIDs and STARs resolved to points
  • Direct legs elsewhere in the world
  • Ordered coordinates ready to consume
  • Handles the messy shorthand pilots type

Use cases

Distance, time and fuel estimation
Route validation before filing
